Brewery Wastewater Treatment

This craft brewery was facing increased discharge fees from the local water authority. The client’s requirements included effective onsite treatment and a simple-to-operate system. The solution was to install two BioGill BG230 bioreactors as part of a demonstration project to treat high sugar / BOD wastewater. The use of two BioGill units in series allowed for separate bacteria consortiums to grow on the membranes resulting in great nutrient removal. On average 95% of the total organic carbon was removed per cycle batch.
